What is your current job title?
I’m currently working as a Performance Engineer for a large financial organization & provide expert analysis regarding their varied application landscapes through CA Wily APM and other profiling tools.
My current role also demands for inclusion of new techniques, technologies and ways to enhance the performance of applications such as code-profiling, client-side profiling, ease-out the legacy and time taking activities (such as transaction recording for 100's of transactions), transaction component mapping for better visibility into application performance tier-wise etc.
I am also involved in consulting on other projects for on-demand performance issue identification.
In other words, I try to prove to be - "...a Man with a Midas touch…" in terms of application’s performance!
